To the Editor:

I so enjoyed the article about the restoration of the old Victorian on the corner of Marine Street and Atlantic Avenue in Beach Haven (“Railroad Magnate’s Expansive Victorian Regains Past Glory,” 8/12). That house has a very special place in my heart and in the hearts of a number of my buddies from high school.

For a number of years we would rent rooms there before moving on to the Evelyn on Liberty Street.
